After the event, Crawford made an appearance at the post-fight press conference where he slammed his critics and announced the dawn of the 'Terence Crawford era.'

"For all you guys that doubted me. For all you guys who said I was too small. I was actually too strong. And now everybody get's to witness greatness, like I said before. It's the Terence Crawford era."
